Biography
Christine and Christian married in 1843 and were baptized in 1861. In 1869, Christian Ole immigrated to Utah and the rest of the family immigrated three years later. One winter, the family struggled to find milk for their rice with milk and cinnamon Christmas dinner. Their neighbor, John Peterson from Spring Lake, walked three miles to give them milk and introduced them to places to go for milk. The family had ten children, eight surviving to adulthood. Christine died in 1881 after almost ten years in Santaquin, Utah.
